A few questions on palate development

Might I say I like your profile pic. I have a tricolor corgi too who is now 9 or 10 years old. He still looks and acts like he did as a puppy. Well, except that he's pretty fat.
The CC I picked up in Jamaica were from an upper end duty free. No reason to suspect they were counterfeit in this case. I did see "cuban cigars" in other places in Negril that were more likely to be counterfeit. In any case I just don't feel (from reading some other posts regarding NC and CC) that I've quite developed that palate to distinguish a CC from a non CC. Nor should this be an issue since I travel rarely to places where I'd run into them. I'm hoping to be able to enjoy some of the milder cigars for what they are. For now, I'm having a tough time appreciating them. But I suppose the search is the fun of it all - much like trying to have kids.

With wine, I find even someone who's not into wine can tell a good one from a bad one when they are side by side.[/quote]
